Author's note

GELAM by Rosemary Yoko of Rosemarydesign is a free outlined display font built from repeated parallel lines. Rounded capitals combine broad geometric shapes with tight turns, recalling maze graphics and 1970s lettering. The striped construction feels precise and playful.

On music posters and arcade graphics, the nested outlines supply immediate retro detail. The same pattern turns confectionery packaging or children's merchandise into an illustrated surface. Playful subject matter links these uses, with the letters doubling as a graphic pattern.
